Rangers in a hurry to replace Mullery.

Queens's Park Rangers chairman Jim Gregory will scour the ranks of football's unemployed to find a successor to Alan Mullery. Following the sudden departure of Mullery, Gregory is unlikely to risk the complications of trying to recruit someone else's manager.Men such as former Rangers' coach George Graham, now driving Third Division Millwall toward promotion, and West Ham's John Lyall would not be released by their present chairmen without a battle - and Gregory needs a replacement quickly.Former Arsenal and Tottenham manager Terry Neill has the credentials to take on the task, while others with London connections but no ties at present include Bobby Campbell, John Bond and Gerry Francis.Neill has resisted offers to bring him back into the game following his dismissal from Arsenal last Christmas, but may now feel his busy sabbatical- marathon running, charity mountain climbing and football analysis on the radio- can be brought to an end.Unlike Mullery, however, Neill may want a longer-term deal than the one-year arrangement agreed by Mullery when he stepped in for Barcelona-bound Terry Venables last summer.Former England captain Mullery had just left Crystal Palace when Gregory offered him the chance to rebuild his managerial reputation. He always had the odds stacked against him, with the "feel" of Venables still very strong at the club.The almost-inevitable end came on Tuesday night after a 2-0 win over Stoke when Gregory agreed with the spectators who had chanted "Mullery must go."Coach Frank Siblev will take charge of the players until a new manager is appointed, and with a visit by League leaders Everton on Saturday, followed on Wednesday by a Milk Cup second replay against Southampton, Rangers' chairman is likely to make his choice within 48 hours.Jan Butterworth, Coventry City's centre-half, had X-rays taken on his right foot yesterday after limping out of Tuesday night's match at Liverpool. He was kicked on the instep and the X-ray is to check for a possible fracture. Liverpool won 3-1.Mervyn Day has made his peace with manager Graham Turner. But the former England Under-23 goalkeeper still wants to leave Aston Villa.Day was suspended by the club last week after voicing strong views on the manager's decision to drop him to make way for fit-again Nigel Spink."After having spoken with Graham Turner at length this afternoon, I have apologised for making public statements which brought his integrity into question," said Day yesterday in an official statement.London solicitor Michael Cranston has announced his resignation as chairman of Southend. The latest development in the club's continuing crisis.Lendl leaves it wide open. Mats Wilander's chances of retaining his Australian Open tennis title were immeasurably improved yesterday when three of the top five seeds, Ivan Lendl, Ioakim Nystrom and Pat Cash, were ousted from the championship.Top seed Lendl, forced by torn stomach muscles and heavy bandaging round his abdomen to serve well below his usual standard, succumbed 6-1, 7-6, 6-4 to ninth-seeded South African Kevin Curren in their held-over, fourth-round match.The Czechoslovak French Open champion, who was trailing 6-1, 2-1 when play was called off because of rain on Tuesday, said he would not have been able to go to four sets."By the end of the third set, I couldn't serve. It (the injury) worried me most when I had to serve," he said.Third-seeded Nystrom, who was left out of the Swedish Davis Cup team named yesterday for the final against the United States this month, was another fourth-round casualty.He was removed 7-6, 6-3, 6-7, 7-5 by unseeded American Ben Testerman, who will meet West German teenager Boris Becker in the quarter-final round.Local hopeful Cash, seeded fifth, failed to upset the seedings in his quarter-final match against South African-born Johan Kriek of the United States, the number four and the main threat to second - seeded Swede Wilander.Lendle throughout used the end changes to replace his bandages, Curren complained about the extra time taken by his opponent and Grand Prix supervisor Bill Gilmour and tournament referee Peter Bellenger were called on court several times.Lendl pulled the stomach muscles during a tournament in the US and the injury recurred during the International Challenge tournament in Canberra and again on Tuesday.A sports medical specialist was yesterday flying from the capital to treat the problem.
